Compiz crashes in TfpTexture::bindTexImage

[Jussi Pakkanen]

I can crash Compiz consistently in newest Quantal. It crashes by itself a few times a day. Respawning does not work, so even though apport gathers the crash info, I can't send it because the browser window is not shown and (most of the time) keypresses are not delivered to windows.

I have created backtrace of the crash manually, it is attached. The actual crash happens somewhere inside NVidia's OpenGL driver.
